Opened my paycheck and had a big, fat raise! Woo hoo! I didn't even ask for one either.

Wow, Deev! Congratulations, girl!

I suggest you go have a huge party to celebrate!

Way to go Diva. And I second kitty's suggestion. Raises are indeed great reasons to party.

See? I told you you'd get the big bucks if you put out.

Hehe, congrats.

Tomorrow I party. Tonight I have my first school exam in six years. Grad school sucks. Actually it doesn't, but I'm surprising unpanicked about it which makes me panicked that I missed something really important.

My check told me I'm getting a 30% pay increase. It just doesn't take effect til midmonth. Either way, I'm stoked.

Congrats though, you should send us all money.

One paycheck will go to fun stuff, the rest save. Although saving will be hard as I have to pay my tuition bill soon.

You know what would be fun? Buying that Guided by Voices box set coming out next month and then dropping it in the mail addressed to me.

Congrats.

Thats fantastic, couldn't happen to a nicer Diva.
And the surprise ones are always the best aren't they?.

I get a surprise every year when I break out my winter coat and find money shoved in a pocket. The past two years there have been twenties. I don't keep my money in a wallet, which is why I always misplace it, but the joy of finding lost money is not to be underappreciated. I always seem to find it when I desperately need it the most. Maybe its my unconscious way of saving for a rainy day.

Got me a $200 check from AT&T, it's my deposit on my account from a year ago. Time to help that credit card debt out the door!
